| Yikes, Blade got marked as a target by an assassin at school. Seems someone is always after him these days. Strangely enough, that assassin strongly resembles Sophie in terms of appearance and not just one person either. It's funny how Blade runs for his life at school in such a cartoonish way. What an odd episode. |

| I guess the finale/climax as they're dubbing it, will be centered around Sophie. A new assassin was after Blade, the former hero. Bearing a striking resemblance to Sophie, they effortlessly infiltrated Rosewood Academy. At every turn, they sought opportunities to assassinate Blade. Unlike Sophie, who had autonomous capabilities, they were more like killing machines, acting solely on the command to eliminate Blade, having been artificially endowed with hero-like abilities. However, instead of simply repelling them, Blade was determined to befriend them, in typical Blade fashion. Ngl, when I saw that new KV they dropped a couple of days ago with a bunch of Sophies, I thought it was going to be a one episode thing, but this has turned into a major problem. Being part of the 'Artificial Hero Project', only one of the many Sophies were going to be able to actually enjoy life and have friends, while the other were left to rot with no friends and no one there with them to support them. Of course Blade being Blade, he's going to solve this problem next episode and become friends with those kids, which should be heartwarming to see as a finale. This episode has got me locked in for the finale next episode. |

| Sophie's side of the story...with two Sophies? One is the Hero reincarnation, and the other...an assassin filled with other Sophie lookalikes dubbed the Sophie series, distinguished by their names in ancient French numbers. Sure enough, another one of them came to Blade, though she ran away again, which makes some encountered, and the assassin part realized so late. The artificially made assassins get to work as the real Sophie does, and their conflict is only the start. Even in the VR training world, Blade is led by Cinq, and while she destroyed him mercilessly, that was just a disguise, and she caught on quick on the real Blade. Everyone is prepared for this, but none can withstand their enormous power together with the black hole, which the real Sophie cancelled out with her powers. Indeed, the Sophies were all part of the same Artificial Great Hero Project, but while Gilgamesh brought Sophie in, the rest were left to their own devices, which she experienced a great change before being programmed only to kill Blade. With Sophie disappearing in the middle of the night...what will the finale bring to resolve her story? |

| fanservice went crazy this week lol Very wild climax we’re getting to this season. An army of Sophies is going to be pretty difficult to deal with. One hero clone isn’t that bad, but 4-5 of them is another thing. Especially when they’re hellbent on killing him at all costs. Even going as far as to open a literal black hole.This kind of reminds me of the sisters arc from Toaru. The other clones haven’t experienced the love or kindness that Sophie has so they’re entirely focused on killing Blade. Of course, given our MC, he’ll somehow take them down and befriend them all, but it’ll be tricky to do so no doubt. |

| Looks like great hero going to have his work cut out saving Sophies |
 To have you, Id give a billion lives A-Chan best girl |
| The other artificial great heroes are here to kill the real thing but ofc they can't given how strong blade is. Sophie feels conflicted and given her situation it makes sense. I hope Blade and everyone can save those girls and put Sophie's mind at ease. Btw Iona with the butt taunt was hilarious. |

| gonna miss this show so much when its over |
   |
| Seems like this series will have some redemption at the end... with another Blade ex-machina, obviously. |
My candies:  |
| This show, at least the 2nd half, has been deeper than I had anticipated it to be. I like how it has blended fanservice, comedy, action, and even a decent storyline. I do recall that in a previous episode that Sophie was one of several clones that were made to replace the Great Hero and now they are dealing with those clones. It sucks that Sophie disappeared in the middle of the night and I think she is blaming herself for those clones going after Blade. Hopefully she doesn't do anything stupid such as sacrificing herself to get rid of them. |
| Can't wait for next episode where they all become best friends 4ever. |
| I am starting to notice one thing that makes this show hard to watch is the music that gets used in it. |

| Iona's taunting is funnier when you realize that it wasn't even necessary because the Sophie clones were already chasing them anyway lmao |
Undefeated  Bahamut |
| i think i like cinq more, but the OG sophie is still the best lol |
       |
| What a boring ending to this show. A threat which could be solved in 5 seconds by Blade, but they deliberately act like they actually need a plan to involve everyone. |
